Behind Again

I got behind again, but this time I have an excuse. My computer has been on the fritz!! That is a nice way of putting it, I've been so frustrated with it, it has actually made me cry a little. A word to the wise, if your computer asks you if you want to download Internet explorer 8...DON"T DO IT!! Come to find out that was my whole problem. A computer genius at Schlumberger told Ryan how I could get rid of it and it is back to normal now.

We had a great Easter, just the normal stuff. I did have my cute niece and nephew here this year it was fun. Grandma Erickson did her annual egg hunt and the kids got spoiled as usual.

4th time is a charm!

We also went to Saint George this past week for Maysons' spring break. It was fun, we got to stay with Ryan's little sister, Katie, who is in Hurricane. Her little boys are darling my boys loved playing with them! We had nice weather the 1st day and a half we were there. We left on Wednesday afternoon and drove home in a snowstorm.

Mayson was quite the climber, he climbed up everything like a monkey

This weekend, I had a baby shower for one of my girlfriends I went to high school with. It was down in Smithfield, so the boys and I went and stayed with Grandpa Low. After the shower, we went over to my brother, Jeffs' house and played with his kids. They are all getting so big. Saturday morning, Jeff and Tanner had built a bike jump. Well, Mayson showed up and was all over that. He was riding Tanners bike, which is tiny for him, but it was his only option. By the end of the night it was discovered that he had broken out the bearings on the front tire and could not be fixed. I felt horrible, I also knew how it would be at my house if the weather was nice and someone had broken one of my kids' bikes. So off Michelle and I go to walmart to get Tanner a new bike. We split the cost and upgraded him a size in the bike world. All is good there I think. Hopefully Tanner is the only one that will break his bike on the jump now. LOL

We had a good visit with my Dad, who is home alone for a bit. Mom is still taking care of Grandpa Mohrlock in San Diego. I could tell he was happy to have visitors. He played with the boys for hours. Jackson teased him with his blankie, Mayson asked him 100,000 questions about everything imaginable. It was fun. Then they got Grandpa to break out the pellet gun and let them shoot at buffalo targets. Talk about the highlight of their LIVES! They would hit the metal target and it would make a ping sound and their little eyes would light up. Mayson got the hang of the sight very quickly and was shooting really well by the time they were done. Jackson would me staring at me while Grandpa aimed then he would pull the trigger...PRICELESS!! I wish I had gotten my camera out on several different occasions during this little trip, but I suck and only got pictures of the best part!

Your boys look so good in those matching outfits for church. You should have told me you were coming to Logan we could have met up. Maybe next time. Glad to see you got a little vacation to St. George.
